In January, Brooklyn district attorney Kenneth Thompson announced an investigation into a group of New York police officers who are accused of planting guns on at least six different suspects. While the results of that investigation have yet to be released, evidence against the accused officers, all from the 67th precinct, appears damning, to say the least.

The district attorney’s office began raising concerns after arresting officers failed to produce or name an alleged confidential informant, who they claimed had led them to 53-year-old James Herring. Herring was arrested on weapons charges and faced a 15 year prison sentence, as a result of those charges. After the officers repeatedly failed to produce the informant, Herring’s case was dismissed by the judge.

According to the district attorney’s office, there have been at least five other cases in which these officers failed to produce an alleged informant. Guns in all of the cases were supposedly discovered either in plastic bags or wrapped in bandannas, and had no identifying fingerprints.

“There could be dozens more,” public defender Debora Silberman said in Brooklyn Supreme Court. “Anyone who was arrested by this team — their arrests should be investigated.”

I'm shocked. Shocked!
